Gotta love a free room upgrade 😍

I think we're ending up with something like this. A kind of hand-drawn, sketchy feel.
Did a lot of segment merging and line sorting to make drawing faster, but will ultimately have to wait until after vacation to see if these can actually print in a reasonable amount of time.

Spent some time writing a hidden segment removal algorithm today. Mostly happy with the results.

Hidden line removal is mostly working. Now I'm just worried about how long these will take to print.

Oh, and this one! Really loved this series but it took so long to print each one

Gearing up for another year of plotter art postcards! It’s become one of my favorite traditions. Here are some pieces from previous years.

Combining depth-based edge detection with a new normals-based approach in a custom shader. The faces of each building are much more visible now!

Trying out video uploads on here. This is a recent capture of some rendering tests I've been doing with some NYC building data. Here I'm adding outlines to the buildings in a post-processing step. #webgpu

Spent a few weeks working on a Rust+wgpu tool for generating per-vertex ambient occlusion values. But I'm taking a break tonight to try out some new rendering techniques. Starting here with some edge detection in the fragment shader. #webgpu

Over the last few months I've been working on an interactive viz that combines some of the features of my previous NYC projects. This one uses raw #WebGPU with a more detailed base map, covering more area, and hopefully with some live transit data.
